This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $454,024 to the Research Foundation For Mental Hygiene, Inc. (Nathan S Kline Institute Division) to investigate high frequency oscillations (HFOs) in Alzheimer's disease. The key objectives are to: (I) determine the role of HFOs as a potential biomarker for Alzheimer's, (II) manipulate HFOs in real-time to potentially boost memory, and (III) test mechanisms contributing to HFOs in...
This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), provides $1,853,477 to the Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene, Inc. at the Nathan S. Kline Institute. The grant supports research aimed at understanding the origins and mechanisms of hyperexcitability and interictal spike activity in Alzheimer's disease, and evaluating whether selectively inhibiting this activity can improve cognition and reduce amyloid-beta pathology. Key research...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $212,095 to George Mason University to investigate changes in the temporal dynamics of cholinergic modulation during aging and its impact on hippocampal network activity and spatial memory. The key objectives are to:
Acquire high-quality experimental data on neural firing in the hippocampal CA3 region and temporal dynamics of cholinergic modulation in freely behaving mice performing a...
This $434,500 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research to investigate the role of dopamine neurons in the lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) and their effects on familiarity bias and memory interference in aging. Specifically, the research aims to: 1) measure dopamine transients in the LEC during the transition from novelty to familiarity, and 2) determine if reactivation of neuronal representations of familiar stimuli in the LEC...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $4,151,128 to The Winifred Masterson Burke Medical Research Institute, Inc. to investigate the role of neuronal hyperexcitability and proteostasis (protein homeostasis) in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The 5-year project, which began on September 1, 2024, aims to elucidate how modifications in brain activity, particularly in the locus coeruleus and hippocampus, can lead to...
This $174,242 Project Grant award under the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) aims to study the prefrontal microcircuit changes in the brain during healthy aging and Alzheimer's disease progression. The project will integrate empirical in vivo calcium imaging recordings, computational simulation modeling, and calcium imaging-based neural decoding methods to determine the impacts of normal aging and Alzheimer's-related pathologies on the prefrontal cortex...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research at the University of Florida to examine the contributions of cognitive load and neural activity in the anterior cingulate cortex on the coupling between the striatal and hippocampal brain networks during age-related cognitive decline. The $242,310 award will fund three years of research, from May 2024 through January 2027, to better understand normal versus pathological changes in...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $1,306,404 to the Winifred Masterson Burke Medical Research Institute, Inc. to study the effects of Alzheimer's disease pathology on neuronal excitability and function in the entorhinal cortex.
The key objectives are to: 1) Investigate how excitatory and inhibitory neurons in the entorhinal cortex are affected in Alzheimer's disease mouse models, using optogenetic and chemogenetic techniques...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), will support a comprehensive research project to investigate the neurobiological mechanisms underlying daily life activity participation in older adults and its relationship to Alzheimer's disease pathology. The $148,568 award, with a performance period from November 2024 to January 2026, will allow Brandeis University to employ a multilevel, multimodal approach combining ecological momentary...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $254,250 to New York University School of Medicine to conduct a multiscale modeling study of brain aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The key objectives are to:
Develop a biologically relevant multi-scale model of brain aging using advanced diffusion MRI techniques to examine the roles of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. This will involve creating a large dataset by unifying...
